Lyrics

Just a small town girlLivin' in a lonely worldShe took the midnight train goin' anywhereJust a city boyBorn and raised in south DetroitHe took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smoky roomA smell of wine and cheap perfumeFor a smile they can share the nightIt goes on and on, and on, and on

[Chorus]Strangers waitingUp and down the boulevardTheir shadows searching in the nightStreetlights, peopleLiving just to find emotionHiding somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fillEverybody wants a thrillPayin' anything to roll the diceJust one more timeSome will win, some will loseSome were born to sing the bluesOh, the movie never endsIt goes on and on, and on, and on
